We've used Bulwark for over four years and have always been pleased with the service. We always get a "heads-up" phone call to let us know that they're coming. The technician always come to the door to see if we're having any problems. Our technician, Michael Davidson, is very courteous and does a thorough job. It's also great to know that we can call at any time between appointments if there is a problem and they come out without any additional charge.

Top 10 Ways To Kill A Spider
The next time you see a spider in your shower, be prepared. Have a surefire plan of attack. The following methods are your best weapons to combat an unsightly spider found hiding inside your home.
10. Firearm
If you want an effective way to kill a spider, a firearm will get the job done. A .44 caliber Ruger should do the trick.
9. Call Chuck Norris
The truth is, you don't need a firearm to kill a spider… Chuck Norris is an equally efficient killing machine!
8. Play Carly Rae Jepsen's, "Call Me Maybe"
If you see a dangerous spider in your home, take the following preventative steps:
Step 1:
Put in earplugs.
Step 2:
Turn on the radio and find Carly Rae Jepsen's, "Call Me Maybe." With as much airplay as that song gets, it should be easy to find playing on some station.
Step 3:
Point the speakers in the spider's direction and watch as it instantly falls to it's death.
Playing anything by Justin Bieber is also equally effective.
7. Hairspray
When you see a spider running across your ceiling, grab the nearest can of hairspray. Enough of the sticky spray will freeze that spider in it's tracks. Even if it doesn't kill it; the spider will still have great hair.
6. Eat The Spider
A delicious way to kill a spider, assuming the spider is not dangerous, is to eat it. Marinade the spider with some garlic, thyme, olive oil and cayenne pepper; then toss it with some garden fresh arugula. Enjoy! Many cultures regularly eat spiders, scorpions, and other insects.
5. Smash Spider In An Oreo Cookie
When that unsightly spider is running across your kitchen counter-top, grab your nearby bag of Oreo cookies. Take an Oreo apart, and quickly smash the spider in the Oreo's cream. On top of killing the spider, you'll also gain internet fame when you post a photo online claiming that you found the spider inside. Read more about the Oreo Spider here:
4. Good Old Fashion Boot
Image Source: tomatoesforapples.blogspot.com
You see a spider running across your bedroom floor and you freeze. Don't panic-- Now's the time to react quickly. A thick-soled, steel toed boot is your best ally at this point. Slip it on, and stomp. Keep stomping! Twenty or thirty times should be efficient.
If you want to try a different strategy with the boot, and have good aim, throw the boot at the spider and run!
3. Make The Spider Sit Through A Phoenix Suns Game
WARNING: Watch a Phoenix Suns game at your own risk... Viewer discretion is advised.
If you want the spider to suffer a slow and painful death, subject the spider to a 2013 Phoenix Suns basketball game. One half of inept basketball should be enough to put the spider out of it's misery.
2. Flamethrower
If you want an effective way to kill a spider, a flamethrower is one of your best bets. Even though you may risk burning your house to the ground, you know that spider is not coming out of it alive.
1. Get Bulwark's

. If you want a money back guaranteed spider control solution; then call Bulwark today and start living a spider free life! It's just easier than any of the above methods.
*** Disclaimer***
Bulwark Exterminating does not recommend the shooting of spiders with firearms, treating them with a flamethrower, or eating them with arugula. Watch a Phoenix Suns game at your own risk... Viewer discretion is advised.
In some cases, like those of the Black Widow or Brown Recluse, spiders can be dangerous.
Avoid striking a venomous spider.
Doing so may simply knock them to the floor, where they can easily escape. The spider may also fall onto your hand or another part of your body and bite.

The Samurai were members of the military elite. Bushido, meaning "the way of the warrior," was the strict code they lived by.

Best Fried Chicken – If you like fried chicken this is your place! Yummy friend chicken and nice strong drinks. Great cowboy themed atmosphere with a fire place. Great place to watch a game if you're into that. This place is really a good old timey place.
daisy48 is frigid! – Regarding Daisey48's review. Obviously she is in dire need of a really good release of sexual desire as her review is incredibly frigid. Casa Orinda fits the exact bill it wants to. A very traditional place that your dad would like to go to, and a fine meal at a price that is "you get what you pay for". I like Casa Orinda for its class and excellent food, bar and traditional decore. and I am not so bigoted to call the hostess "old white lady". Grow up daisy!
Great restaurant, if you hate service and money but LOVE fried chicken – Obviously the fried chicken is great, but you will have to compromise on service and cost. Prices are pretty high considering this is NOT five star. Service leaves something to be desired. Usually a snooty old white lady greets you at the reception desk, and she is appalled if you do not have a reservation. Usually long waits and a general were-better-than-you-ness attitude by most older staff (some of the staff are friendly).
Great Fried Chicken, Generous Portions, Stiff Drinks – Old-fashioned restaurant food. Their fried chicken is justifiably renowned, even if the bird is a bit on the small side. The mashed potatoes are smooth and creamy, the vegetables nicely done. The biscuit is superb. Other meat dishes feature generous portions. Lots of pasta on the menu, as well. The cocktails contain lots of alcohol, and the food and drink prices are quite moderate. Very American comfort food served in an Old West-themed restaurant.
Good food, "unusual" ambience – Being in Casa Orinda suddenly makes you want to order a Rob Roy or a Manhattan. It's definitely a throwback to a time when a Martini and a thick steak was a swell night out.
The Fried Chicken is renowned, but I'm a fan of their Veal Picatta, which is always tender and delicious. Their desserts are quite good, my favorite being the Mud Pie.
The cowboy theme (!!) is used throughout the place, even in the restrooms. The tasty food will soon make you forget that you're sitting under a wall of pistols, or branding irons.

Im using windows 7 and my phone isnt showing up under the drives. How do I copy music onto it?
I'm on Mac and Linux and it doesn't show on either one here, either...
Does the prompt pop up that a new device has been discovered?
The phone appears under devices. It says all is well. I just cannot access the storage. Im about to try a Computer with XP.
Nope. Nothing here...
Make sure you drop down the notification bar and select USB connected.
Then a box should pop up and select "Mount" from the popup. That should mount your SD card as a new drive on your computer.
Let me know if that works.
No problemo -- usually that action has a sound with it (it does on my G1).
Good luck!
You mean on the phone? Or on the 'puter? I did the phone settings, there is a bar to unmount or format, but no USB connected...It tells me that USB is connected on the phone, but still nothing in Finder (Mac's 'My Computer').

A new Wisconsin Historical Society website is coming mid-May 2014! See a preview >>
Author Q&AWisconsin Historical Society Press: Why did you decide to write "Beyond the Trees?"
Candice Gaukel Andrews: In 2004, when I began traveling throughout the state to do research for my 2006 book "Great Wisconsin Winter Weekends," I found that visiting forests was one of my favorite things to do in each area that I was writing about. That got me wondering if anyone had ever written a book about what its like to personally experience all of our state and our one national forest. I couldnt find any. There were academic books on our forests and many logging history books, but that wasnt the kind of book I was looking for. I wanted one about what it actually feels like to be in a Wisconsin forest: what its like to run your hands over a wooden, logging dam turnstile from the 1800s or what its like to stand in a circle of "cathedral" trees and look up into their lofty crowns.
I knew there was a missing piece in our Wisconsin forest literature: we needed a book on our forests from a nature writers perspective.
WHS Press: What were some of the most surprising or interesting things you learned about Wisconsins forests?
CGA: I learned that Wisconsin forests are extremely diverse more so than you would think since they are all technically termed "forests." There are forests that are more beach than forest; forests that are more prairie than forest; forests that are more water than woods; and forests that have virtually no water at all. There are forests that are young and some that are old, there are those that are wide in shape and some that are very slim, some that are remote in location and some that sit near or in the middle of a big city, and some that remain wild with very few footpaths while others are highly developed with specific trails made out of high-tech materials for specific purposes.
In other words, one stand of trees is definitely not like another once you get out of the car, lace up the hiking boots, and start exploring on foot.
WHS Press: In what ways was writing "Beyond the Trees" a personal experience? How do you feel connected with the book?
CGA: I started, really, from a "blank slate." I hadnt really visited any of our forests when I started writing this book and didnt know much about them other than the logging history. So, I knew I would have to personally get inside the forests, walk their trails, float their rivers, touch their plants, catch glimpses of their animals, stumble across evidence of their history (such as old, stone foundations hidden in the underbrush), and have coffee with the people who live or work in them every day. This was not so much an academic research project as it was a hands-on, get-down-in-the-dirt-and-on-the-trail kind of acquaintance and connection I needed to make with our forests.
Now that Ive done all the research, personally visited all the forests, talked with the people who love them, I feel like I know them all as individual friends, with individual personalities.
WHS Press: How is this book a uniquely Wisconsin story?
CGA: This book is a uniquely Wisconsin story precisely because it is about Wisconsins state forests. We are "forest people" here in Wisconsin. Forests are in our blood; they are part of us. Our European ancestors who first settled here and who strived to establish successful agricultural fields had them foremost in their minds every day as they worked to chop the woods back; they saw forests as something to be eradicated and tamed. They worked their hardest to "control" them. But now that we, their descendants, are no longer fighting them every day, we miss them. We tend to see them as havens from city life and the constant barrage of mass communications.
WHS Press: Which forest is your favorite to visit and explore? Which forest did you enjoy writing about the most?
CGA: Thats a tough one! Its like asking a mother which of her children is her "favorite." One day, I may give you one answer; but ask me the next day, and I may be most fond of another. Because they truly do have such distinctive personalities, its hard to compare them on an even playing field.
Today, Ill say that the Brule River State Forest comes to mind because it is so wild and still so "primitive" in many ways. And those kinds of remote, undeveloped places always appeal to me. When writing this book, it was a joy for me to discover the Brule forests Historic Brule to St. Croix Portage Trail logbook. As a writer, I got inspiration from reading what others had written about their experiences in the forest, right there on a bench on the trail. They wrote down their thoughts on the spot, unedited. The comments were so genuine and from the heart.
Ask me tomorrow, though, and Ill probably mention the Black River State Forests great diversity of terrain and plants and animals; or I might answer that I love the Coulee Experimental State Forests quietness and hard-to-find quality. It goes on and on; every day, Im thankful I got to get to know them all in such a deep and personal manner.
WHS Press: What do you hope readers take away from "Beyond the Trees?"
CGA: We Wisconsinites are truly "a people of the trees." The Great Northwoods is in our genes, so to speak; whether we live in northern Wisconsin or the southern part of the state. If youve lived in Wisconsin anytime while you were growing up, you studied the history of Wisconsins great forests in school. They are us, and theyre still in our own backyard.
If I inspire even just one person to get up, go outside, and start exploring a nearby forest, then the long hours and many miles on my hiking boots were spent for a good cause.

The 2013 Ford Flex is not your typical 7-passenger family vehicle, at least not if looks count for anything. Its long and boxy silhouette is reminiscent of the big station wagons of the 1960s and 1970s, plus it's lower to the ground than an SUV. And, while competitors like the Honda Pilot, Dodge Durango and Chevrolet Tahoe may tout their max towing or off-road ability, the Flex focusses on transporting people on paved surfaces. It's striking and stylish as well as functional and useful – a fine combination similar to minivans and SUVs in capabilities, but clearly different from both.
If you're looking for a family vehicle that is a modern equivalent of the classic American station wagon, the 2013 Ford Flex could be the one. It offers seating for six or seven, a range of models and prices, available all-wheel drive, and a turbocharged V6 EcoBoost engine.You May Not Like This Car If...
If you need to tow more than 4,500 pounds or go venturing over rugged dirt tracks, the 2013 Ford Flex is not the best choice. The big V8-powered SUVs such as the Dodge Durango or Ford Expedition are better geared to these tasks, and may also offer more space inside.
For 2013, the Ford Flex gets a significant facelift with restyled front end, instrument panel and seats. There is a little more power in the base engine, manual shifting for the 6-speed automatic, new MyFord Touch, and several new available systems including parallel-parking assist and adaptive cruise control.Driving It Driving Impressions
Despite its wide body and long wheelbase, the 2013 Ford Flex feels pleasingly maneuverable and responsive. Its poise through tight turns is really quite impressive, and its smooth ride and quiet interior add to the pleasant driving experience. Sway and body roll are kept in check by a taut suspension, big wheel and tire packages and the Flex's low-to-the-ground stance. The electric power steering has unusually good feel for such systems. Despite is boxy appearance, the Flex seems to slip through the air easily at freeway speeds, creating very little wind noise. The base 287-horsepower engine gives adequate acceleration but the EcoBoost's 365 horsepower is clearly quicker and adds an element of sportiness to the drive. And the 2013 Ford Flex's available all-wheel drive adds another level of assurance on slippery roads.
When fitted with the middle-row captain's chairs instead of the bench, the console between can be equipped with a built-in refrigerator that holds up to seven 12-ounce cans. And, with a low temperature of 23 degrees Fahrenheit, it can double as a mini ice cream cart.
Ford's SYNC communications system features a voice-activated command center that can access music from an attached MP3 player, answer and place calls from a Bluetooth-enabled cell phone, and even read aloud incoming text messages.
Ford took pains to make the 2013 Flex someplace special. The inviting interior is functional, elegantly appointed and meticulously assembled. The restyle this year gives the instrument panel a clean and functional high-tech look, with the three screens for the new MyFord Touch system. Noteworthy features include the massive 4-panel Vista skylight. The 2nd-row and 3rd-row seats fold flat, but so does the right-front passenger seat, creating acres of cargo room. For hauling people, the front and middle rows provide spacious and comfy accommodations for four full-size adults, five in a pinch. Third-row occupants will find legroom snug.
The 2013 Ford Flex looks both functional and quirky, both edgy and timeless: Ford Country Squire wagon meets Mini Cooper. It's a box, for sure, but an elegantly detailed box, with aero-friendly contours around the edges and lower body. The new-this-year face is quite modernistic, with a strong horizontal character and the unusual decisions to downplay the headlights and put the Flex name in chrome across the nose. The aluminum-clad liftgate and optional contrasting-color roof are also strong visual elements. The Flex's flat, brick-like contours won't thrill everyone, but it's a distinctive and functional way to build a family hauler.Notable Standard Equipment
The 2013 Ford Flex comes in three trim levels: SE, SEL and Limited. Standard equipment includes keyless entry, a 6-way power driver's seat, tilt/telescoping steering wheel, Reverse Sensing System, fog lights, front and rear air conditioning, an MP3-compatible CD player, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel. Moving up to the top-of-the-line Limited trim brings heated front seats, a 10-way power driver's seat with memory, Sony Premium audio with Ford SYNC communications system, voice-activated navigation, leather interior, a power-folding 3rd-row seat, and 19-inch aluminum wheels. Standard safety equipment on all models includes inflatable 2nd-row safety belts and 3-row side-curtain airbags.Notable Optional Equipment
Options for the Ford Flex vary by trim and include a 365-horsepower EcoBoost V6 (Limited), all-wheel drive (SEL and Limited), rearview camera, power rear liftgate, heated 2nd-row seats with power Autofold mode, 2nd-row captain's-chair seating with center-console refrigerator, 4-panel Vista roof, a contrasting painted top, remote start, a rear-seat DVD entertainment system, and Park Assist active parallel parking aid.
Depending on trim, Ford offers two engines and the choice of front-wheel drive (FWD) or all-wheel drive (AWD) on the 2013 Flex. The standard engine on all trims is a smooth and efficient 3.5-liter V6 with variable valve timing. Its 287 horsepower (modestly increased for 2013) is certainly adequate if not class-leading. Fuel economy is quite good with an estimated 17 mpg city and 24 highway. All-wheel-drive models earn slightly lower estimates. Optional on the Limited trim is the EcoBoost V6, which uses gasoline direct injection and twin turbochargers to produce an impressive 365 horsepower. A 6-speed automatic transmission is used throughout, and the EcoBoost engine is offered only with AWD.
3.5-liter V6
287 horsepower @ 6,500 rpm
254 lb-ft of torque @ 4,000 rpm
EPA city/highway fuel economy: 18/25 mpg (FWD), 17/23 mpg (AWD)
3.5-liter twin-turbocharged V6
365 horsepower @ 5,500 rpm
350 lb-ft of torque @ 1,500–5,250 rpm
EPA city/highway fuel economy: 16/23 mpg
The 2013 front-wheel-drive Ford Flex SE has a Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) starting at $31,710. The mid-range SEL starts just over $34,000 with FWD, $36,000 with AWD. A top-line Limited starts just over $40,000 with the base engine and FWD and tops $45,000 with the EcoBoost V6 and AWD. Fully loaded, a Flex Limited can exceed $50,000. The Flex's pricing is in line with competitors such as the Chevrolet Traverse and Honda Pilot. To make your best deal, be sure to check our Fair Purchase Price, which shows the typical Flex transaction prices in your area. As for resale value, Kelley Blue Book expects the Flex to hold a good portion of its original purchase price, on par with the Chevy Traverse, but falling slightly behind the Honda Pilot.

Plan Your The Columbia Gorge and Mt. Hood Area Vacation
Volcanoes, lava flows, Ice Age floodwaters, and glaciers were Nature's tools of choice when carving a breathtaking 80-mile landscape now called the Columbia River Gorge. Proof of human civilization here reaches back 31,000 years, and excavations near the Dalles have uncovered evidence that salmon fishing is a 10,000-year-old tradition in these parts. In 1805 Lewis and Clark discovered the Columbia River to be the only waterway that led to the Pacific. Their first expedition was a treacherous route through wild, plunging rapids, but their successful navigation set a new exodus in motion.

After comparison tests of commuter cups by the Hammacher Schlemmer Institute, this model proved to be The Best because it is easy to drink from and does not leak, even when inverted. The Best model's spill-proof lid springs open with the touch of a button - staying out of the way as you drink - and its handleless, slim design fits in a car's cup holder. A safety lock prevents spills when the cup is carried in a briefcase or purse. The Best Commuter Cup allowed hot water to decrease in temperature by only 18ş F after two hours, unlike lesser models that lost up to 71ş F. It kept ice cubes frozen for 36 hours, while other commuter cups allowed ice to melt in six hours. The commuter cup's superior temperature retention is due to its dual walls of stainless steel and vacuum insulation that also prevents heat- or cold- transfer to the exterior. It washes easily because of its removable lid and nonporous interior. Blue or Black. 16-oz. capacity. 9" H x 2 1/2" W. (17 oz.)
"Keeps the hot coffee hot for a long time and does NOT leak."- CT, Pennsylvania
Lifetime Guarantee
The Best Commuter Cup comes with The Hammacher Schlemmer Lifetime Guarantee at no additional charge.

So many people have so many different definitions of agile development that in my opinion, it's more productive to think of agile as an attitude than as a methodology. While there are a number of methodologies that support agile development, to look at agile development as a methodology itself is, I believe, to miss the point completely.
The question now is: What will you do with a definition of "Agile"?
Rails is an extremely Agile platform because it allows you to minimize the time between when your boss requests a feature, and when your users are using it. To do that, you must avoid excess work and waste, following these ideals:
- ask your boss what the minimum possible requirements are for that feature
- automate tests and deployment, to avoid rework and repeated actions
- use tools that help minimize redundant coding
- follow practices, such as pair programming, refactoring, and continuous integration, that keep code clean, DRY, and flexible
So the answer to "how to be Agile with Rails" is, generally, built-into all the verbiage you will ever read about RoR, anywhere.
-- Phlip http://assert2.rubyforge.org/
i will send you pdf containing the infor mation about agility
I am trying to find information on Agile Web Development but the only information i can find is on: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agile_web_development
Can any one point me to any journals or information that I can use to help understand Agile Web Development more.

TxDOT is currently reviewing proposals for the I-35E project in Dallas and Denton Counties. Final proposals are due in November 2012.
The I-35E project is dedicated to improving mobility along I-35E in a safe, efficient, reliable and environmentally sensitive manner.
The proposed $4.8 billion project would rebuild the entire 28-mile corridor in phases and provide managed lanes with dynamic pricing to keep traffic moving at 50 mph. Approximately $1.1 billion in funding has been identified for the project with most coming from SH 121 regional toll revenue funds dedicated to Denton County.
The project consists of three segments:
Daily Usage
This section of the I-35 corridor is on the list of Texas' 100 most congested roadways. Expanding I-35E will reduce congestion that results in lost work time, increased fuel costs and higher price of goods. The project will improve mobility across Lake Lewisville with construction of a second bridge that will offer more reliability for commuters during major incidents.
Phase 1 improvements include:
Construction could begin by 2013, contingent upon available funding and completion of the procurement process to deliver the project as a comprehensive development agreement (CDA).
Segment 2 received environmental clearance in January 2011; Segment 1 received environmental clearance in December 2011; and Segment 3 received environmental clearance in January 2012. If construction begins in 2013, work could be complete by 2017. Precise timelines for portions that will be reconstructed with new managed lanes are contingent upon funding and future proposals from developer teams.

You may have noticed a recent change in homeowners insurance rates in Pennsylvania. This can be attributed to the increase in storms and other natural disasters in the past several years, increasing the cost of maintaining and repairing residents. The increase in demands drives homeowners insurance rates up. Historically, homeowners policies were the most profitable on the market, but now it's apparent they were under priced.
There's a few steps you can take to bring down these costs for your homeowners insurance policy. Self insuring is the practise of taking a higher deductible to assume more risk on your policy. The benefit is that you will pay lower premiums. It's no longer viable to pay higher premiums for a lower deductible for your homeowners insurance policy. You can save thousands of dollars each year this way.
When shopping for your homeowners insurance, it's imperative that you learn the difference between replacement costs and the actual value of your property. Your insurer determines the settlement based on one or the other. To determine actual cash value they estimate replacement costs and subtract from that for depreciation due to age and use. The actual cash value settlement will estimate the replacement cost and then subtract any depreciation because of age or use. Actual cash values are more often used for older homes. A replacement cost policy will repair with comparable materials, making it more appropriate for newer homes.
The best tip for saving on your homeowners insurance policy is to combine it with your auto insurance. These discounts can be significant and typically the insured is more generously underwritten. You can also get extra discounts by adding features such as burglar and fire alarms that connect directly to the police and fire stations. Using all of these methods and shopping to compare rates of different deductibles will all help save you save money each year on your homeowners insurance rates.

New technology enables home buyers to check out the neighborhood
By Maria Patterson
RISMEDIA, March 14, 2007-"With agents overwhelmingly embracing the Internet to market their property listings, we felt there was a great opportunity to add a missing piece of the puzzle to agents' Web sites," says Bradley Moseley-Williams, Explore My Neighborhood company spokesperson.
"When somebody is looking at purchasing a house, they are interested in the house and the neighborhood it is in. Most agents' Web sites only provide information and pictures on the house. They either contain no information on the neighborhood points of interest, or the points of interest are generic like a list of all restaurants within two miles of the house," Moseley-Williams explains.
"Wouldn't it be great if an agent could set up a listing that combined information and pictures of the house with information and pictures of neighborhood points that were hand picked by the agent or homeowner?" asks Moseley-Williams. "Instead of showing a list of all restaurants, show the five favorite restaurants determined by the homeowner. This way a potential buyer would get the two main categories of information they want and get the benefit that the neighborhood points of interest were filtered by the people who know the neighborhood the best," he says.
This is the idea behind the development of a technology enabling real estate professionals to incorporate not only a tour of a home on their sites, but the home's neighborhood as well. The idea became reality last month with the launch of ExploreMyNeighborhood.com.
With ExploreMyNeighborhood, agents can take their Web marketing "beyond baseline" as Moseley-Williams says. By taking pictures of key neighborhood points of interest, agents can provide valuable insight into the feel of the entire area-a critical factor for every prospective homeowner. What's more, agents can customize the neighborhood information according to a potential buyer's lifestyle needs, such as parks and schools for parents, restaurants and Starbucks for the executive set.
Moseley-Williams emphasizes that by incorporating this type of neighborhood information into their online listing presentations, agents can provide a service for home sellers that would differentiate them from the competition. "I don't think there's anything out there that combines what this solution has," he states.
ExploreMyNeighborhood is designed to complement an agent's existing site. "The technology is available for any location," Moseley-Williams explains. "All the agent has to do is take 10 pictures of 10 interesting points, upload the pictures and-bang-it's done."
Ultimately, says Moseley-Williams, "ExploreMyNeighborhood will differentiate agents in the marketplace. It is as much of a marketing tool to help brand the agent as technology savvy, as it is to market the property listing." RE

Lucky for us, Taylor Lautner also revealed a scene in the movie that is not in the book. MTV reports:
"And speaking of Jacob's friends, Lautner also told us that one of his favorite scenes in the "New Moon" movie is something that didn't occur in Stephenie Meyer's novel. It's a moment revolving around the newly glimpsed character of Quil Ateara and his smoothness with the ladies — or lack thereof.
"I loved shooting the scenes with Embry and Quil," he revealed. "Tyson [Houseman] plays Quil, and he's just kind of a funny character.
"Me and Bella — I'm sorry, Bella and I — are working on the bikes, and Embry and Quil come in," Lautner explained of the scene. "Quil's checking out Bella [and trying to be smooth] and is like, 'Hey, I'm Quil. Quil Ateara.' It's a really funny scene, and the two were really great in it."
Thanks for spilling some of the beans Taylor!

The fifth-ranked Lady Golden Eagles (30-4) are set to face Andalusia in the AHSAA Class 4A state championship today at noon at the Birmingham-Jefferson Convention Complex with a roster which includes just one senior in their starting lineup.
It's been the play of senior all-state point guard Lacey Buchanon, a Samford signee and Northeast Regional MVP, which has guided them to this point. But the play of her younger teammates has played a key role in bringing fifth-ranked Jacksonville through some of its most crucial points during its run to the title game.
"I look out there and sometimes we've got five freshmen on the court," Jacksonville coach Ryan Chambless said following a 53-42 victory against No. 7 Midfield in the semifinals. "We've got a good bench. They've really improved over the course of the year. This year, I feel pretty good putting those girls in in those situations."
Chambless was referring to a 3:35 stretch of the first quarter against Midfield when he was forced to sit both Buchanon and junior Sharon Osterbind, the team's second-leading scorer and rebounder with two fouls.
During that time, Midfield, in its eighth-straight trip to the Final 48, failed to gain the lead. Reserve post player Tamaria Mays came on and scored on her only shot attempt of the game with 2:25 left in the quarter to knot the score at six, heading into the second.
In the second quarters against Midfield, it was freshman Virginia Poe's back-to-back 3-pointers and free-throw, all in the final two minutes that gave the Lady Golden Eagles a five-point edge at halftime.
Osterbind took over in the third, scoring nine of her team-best 18 points to go along 12 rebound. Fellow junior Kenyatta Ervin also finished with a double-double with 13 points and 10 rebounds.
"Everybody looks to try to stop Lacey and they try to stop Sharon," Chambless said. "But I feel like all those ninth-graders — Kira (Kingston), Virginia and Angel (Kidd) — and Kenyatta too have come a long way. They've had opportunities to step up and they have."
Four Jacksonville players scored at least seven points, including Buchanon's nine and Poe's seven, as the Lady Golden Eagles spread the wealth against Midfield. It was a stark contrast to the Lady Patriots who relied, almost exclusively on, senior point guard Jasmine Steele. The Alabama signee scored a game-high 30 points but did so on 11-42 shooting. No one else on her team had more than four points.
"As a coach, one or two people are easier to stop than four or five," Chambless said. "It's harder to scheme against a team when you've got more scorers."
In their 51-44 win against previously undefeated Oneonta in the regional final, Kidd scored five huge points on a 3-pointer and a step-back jumper, to give her team some final separation.
Andalusia upset top-ranked Good Hope 62-54 in the other semifinals game to advance.
Chambless said the No. 6 Lady Bulldogs (30-2) are one of the more athletic teams they've faced in the playoffs likening them to Childersburg, running a mixture of man and zone defenses.
Be it Buchanon's 18-point second half against Oneonta or Poe's or Osterbinds runs against Midfield, someone always seems to step u for the Lady Golden Eagles. They're the type of timely performance Chambless said is essential for a team to make with championship dreams.
"Everybody contributes," Chambless said. "And contributing doesn't always mean scoring 15 or 20 points. It's when people make plays and take advantage of opportunities when called upon. Everyone has a different role."

Bon Qui Qui is the surly patron saint of fast-food workers.
"Welcome to King Burger, where we could do it your way, but don't get crazy," is her insolent greeting to customers, a warning to avoid "complicated" custom orders like a cheeseburger without cheese, lettuce, tomato or a bun. Wielding super-long glittery fingernails, badly dyed hair extensions and an attitude, she labels everyone else rude, calls security to kick out any customers who annoy her (i.e., all of them), and frequently threatens, "I will cut you."
Bon Qui Qui (the name has no special meaning, and no connection to France) is a character created by Los Angeles comedian Anjelah Johnson for the former sketch-comedy show MADtv. A 2007 YouTube video of her Bon Qui Qui skit has gone viral, amassing nearly 62 million views. (See it at bit.ly/Wb7twu.)
Johnson reprised the role in a rap song ("I'm a Cut You"), and most recently in a video for urbane designer Alexander Wang's spring 2013 line. Bon Qui Qui, as a sales assistant in Wang's posh New York City flagship store, can't be bothered to find a shoe or shirt in a different size. Victoria's Secret model Alessandra Ambrosio, hip-hop star A$AP Rocky and fashion commentator Simon Doonan are among the harassed customers.
Sure, Bon Qui Qui is over-the-top, but sometimes the most absurd characters are also the most honest.
Bon Qui Qui, Johnson said, is based partly on a girl she met at a drive-thru in Memphis, Tenn., 10 years ago, but is "mostly my brother, who is just ghetto-fabulous. He has no filter; he says whatever he feels like saying. That's kind of Bon Qui Qui. And a lot of times it's what people are thinking, so you can't REALLY get mad at her because you were probably thinking it too."
Johnson, performing stand-up in Oxnard on Saturday night, likely will treat the audience to a brusque bit of Bon Qui Qui.
She'll also include elements of another popular sketch in which she imitates a Vietnamese manicurist, Tammy, who works at the "Beautiful Nail" — yes, just one nail — salon. The video has compiled more than 30 million YouTube views (see it at bit.ly/Xu9fL0), and you can purchase a T-shirt or nail file printed with "Do you lye crytol gel?" (i.e., Tammy-speak for "Do you like crystal gel?") on Johnson's website.
"It's such a classic; people want to hear it," Johnson said of the character. "But I've come to present Tammy the nail salon lady without doing the joke word for word that you've seen on YouTube. I feel like people still get what they came for, just in a different way."
Randy Lubas, co-owner of the Ventura Harbor Comedy Club and a headliner comedian himself, said Johnson performed at the Ventura venue a few years ago.
"We were lucky enough to have her on a Thursday," Lubas said. "It was right before she blew up. She sold out our show in just a few days, and had a standing ovation. It was amazing to see how quickly she developed such a huge fan base. ... She did a bit that went viral on the Internet ... about going to the nail salon. It resonated louder with people than just about anything anyone has ever seen."
Chips, chipmunks, cheers
It's almost obligatory to mention that Johnson is "of Mexican and Native American descent," as her biography notes, but she doesn't call herself a "Latina comedian," or any other kind of genre comedian.
"I consider myself a comedian who happens to be Latina, Christian, female," she said. "But I wouldn't say, 'Hey, come check out Latina comedian Anjelah Johnson,' or 'Come hear this Christian comedian.' I don't have jokes about Matthew, Mark, Luke and John."
In stand-up routines, Johnson obliges with her Bon Qui Qui and Tammy impersonations, but mostly plays ... herself. She's a storyteller who talks about (and mocks) her own life and very relatable experiences, like her "chip monster" brother, who always cleans her pantry out of chips; married life (Johnson's husband is musician Manwell Reyes); GPS navigation; her distaste for tomatoes; her large extended family.
Johnson, one of five kids in a close family, grew up in San Jose. She was a cheerleader for the Oakland Raiders, then moved to Los Angeles to become an actress, and started doing stand-up in 2005 after taking a joke-writing class at her church.
In 2010, she played sister-of-the-bride to America Ferrera in the comedy film "Our Family Wedding." Other roles include a live-action role as the Chipmunks' music teacher in "Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel"; the voice of an Afghan dog in "Marmaduke"; and appearances on "Ugly Betty" and "Curb Your Enthusiasm."
Now, Johnson said, she's shooting the TV pilot for "About a Boy," an NBC comedy based on the film (adapted from Nick Hornby's book) starring Hugh Grant. The show, directed by Jon Favreau, stars David Walton as Will, the bachelor who develops a friendship with his neighbor, an 11-year-old boy. Johnson plays Laurie, the wife of Will's best friend.
Johnson channels some Bon Qui Qui when she starts talking about her former days as a Raiderette, which included a chance to cheer on the Raiders at Super Bowl XXXVII in 2003 versus Tampa Bay (the Raiders lost).
(View the Stand-up star Anjelah Johnson slide show.)
"Raider fans are cray-cray" (that last word in a high-pitched voice), she said. "There's different tiers of fans. You have fans who love the Raiders and bleed silver and black. And then there are the fans who just want to bleed and make other people bleed because they're drunk, and they think they've joined a gang. Cholos: Relax."
Johnson has appeared at the Oxnard Performing Arts Center twice before, in 2010 and 2011. Oxnard audiences, she said, have been "pretty diverse; I like it like that. Every time I've been in Oxnard I just remember they have really good energy. And I get to drive home after."
Johnson also likes Oxnard, she said, "because it's beach life but the 'hood at the same time."
fine comedy line
As for topics she doesn't cover, Johnson said she doesn't get, well, topical — no politics or current events.
"I stay away from anything that would encourage somebody to want to shout out their opinion," she said.
Johnson did, however, find herself caught up in a recent breaking-news event: last month's hunt for ex-police officer Christopher Dorner, who went on a rampage, killing four people before taking his own life in a shootout with police at a cabin in the San Bernardino Mountains.
Johnson was mentioned in what the media called Dorner's online "manifesto," a long letter outlining his complaints. Johnson was included in a list — along with Serena Williams, Natalie Portman, Kelly Clarkson and many others — of what he called "the most beautiful women on this planet."
Johnson said she's kept Dorner's shout out out of her shows.
"I wanted to talk about it, but it just felt so insensitive, knowing that people had been killed and families were mourning," she said. "It was such a fine line that I don't like to walk. There are some comedians who would totally go after it and not care, but sometimes I care too much about what people think."
Even "no filter" Bon Qui Qui would agree with that.
Anjelah Johnson
The comedian will perform at 8 p.m. Saturday at the Oxnard Performing Arts and Convention Center, 800 Hobson Way. Tickets, $32, are available in person at the box office, or at 486-2424, http://www.oxnardpacc.com or http://www.livenation.com. Johnson's website is http://anjelah.com.

Donald McRae was born near Johannesburg, South Africa. In 1984 he moved to London, and he is now an award-winning author of six nonfiction books, which feature legendary trial lawyers, heart surgeons, sex workers, and sporting icons. McRae is the only two-time winner of the U.K.'s prestigious William Hill Sports Book of the Year.
He has also won the U.K.'s Sports Feature Writer of the Year—and was runner-up in the 2008 Sports Writer of the Year—for his work as an interviewer for the Guardian. His last three books have been largely set in America—from where he has conducted the bulk of his research over the last 16 years.
His new book, The Last Trials of Clarence Darrow, will be published in June 2009. This book focuses on Darrow's great trilogy of trials at the end of his tumultuous career; and many of the themes of 1920s America chime with McRae's past in South Africa.

McRae lived under apartheid for the first 23 years of his life. The impact of that experience has shaped his writing—for South Africa was a strange and surreal country then. The parallel but unequal black and white worlds pulsed with prejudice and violence as well as drama and intimacy. At the age of 21, while avoiding his two-year call-up to the white army, McRae took up a full-time post as a teacher of English literature in Soweto. He worked in the black township for 18 months until he was forced to leave the country.
In London his first book, Nothing Personal, about prostitution, was widely praised on its publication in 1992. Apart from receiving many curious letters from male readers wanting to know if he might put them in touch with Angel on page 217, he was contacted by one special reader. A young postgraduate architect called Alison had bought his book while researching how best she might design a brothel—her brave, if bizarre, choice of a site for her final piece of academic work. When they met, Alison was relieved that she was not floored by McRae's less-than-stunning appearance. It would be much easier to talk about designing a brothel without any distractions. Yet 16 years later, they have been together ever since, having married in 1995 and now bringing up three children.
His subsequent books, Dark Trade (1996) and Winter Colours (1998), were both shortlisted for Britain's Sports Book of the Year. Dark Trade won this award when it was described by the judging panel as "an outstanding winner, which shows all the magic and misery of boxing, the drama and the dedication of modern-day gladiators."
McRae's fourth book, In Black and White: The Untold Story of Joe Louis and Jesse Owens, won this same award in 2002. It was published by Ecco in the United States as Heroes Without a Country: America's Betrayal of Joe Louis and Jesse Owens. His fifth book, Every Second Counts: The Race to Transplant the First Human Heart, was published in 2006—and soon after that he completed his journey from the sex industry to the surgical theater when he delivered a keynote address to surgeons from around the world at the International Society for Heart & Lung Transplantation in San Francisco. McRae still managed to slip in a few references to hookers and boxers, while admitting that he had loved writing about heart surgeons most of all.
McRae specializes in researching and writing books about larger-than-life figures, who are either revered or infamous, from both the past and the present, in a vivid and intimate way. McRae's books feature characters as diverse as Clarence Darrow, Nathan Leopold, Richard Loeb, William Jennings Bryan, Joe Louis, Jesse Owens, Christiaan Barnard, Norman Shumway, Richard Lower, Adrian Kantrowitz, Muhammad Ali, Mike Tyson, Oscar de la Hoya, and James Toney. In a similar way, his sports interviews for the Guardian are detailed one-to-one encounters with a range of famous athletes in Britain and America —from Michael Phelps and Lance Armstrong to LeBron James and Reggie Bush, from Paula Radcliffe and Luol Deng to Lewis Hamilton and Steve Nash.
McRae lives just outside London with his wife and three children.

Telekinesis On World Cafe
Originally published on Wed October 2, 2013 3:34 pm
By David Dye
When Telekinesis' Michael Benjamin Lerner plays live, he sings from behind his drum set, but he plays almost all the instruments on his albums. The power-pop multi-instrumentalist recorded his latest record, Dormarion, at Spoon drummer Jim Eno's house — fittingly located on Dormarion Lane.
In this installment of World Cafe, Lerner discusses how he recorded the album with so many of his own tracks, and says he's finally allowed himself to branch out from identifying himself as "just" a drummer.

I have bought a Adafruit Ultimate GPS v3 board to build a raspberry pi statrum 1 time source (with PPS). I'd like to connect it to the pi without using a breadboard, just some jumper wires from the GPS board to the GPIO. I gather this is the pin out:

PPS - Pin 23
Ground - Ground
VIN - 5v
Can I also connect at small character LCD screen to the Pi without adding anything else or am i stuck for power and pins?
best wishes - jack

Brother Ray Camp brought the message today from 1 Kings, chapter 13. Elijah showed the prophets of Baal the real power of the one true living God. Afterwards, they knew who the real God was. Today, the world tries to lead us away from the one true God by attempting to get us to follow false gods. We need to experience the true power of God in order to reject the false gods of the world. Sometimes we get caught up in religious traditions and forget to include God. We don't need a form of religion; we need the real power of God. Are you missing the power of God in your life? When you accept Jesus Christ as your Savior, you can tap in to the power that the one true God has waiting for you. Don't miss out. Eternal life is waiting for you.
Please pray for: Gary McCormick, Robert and Gladys Baughn, Johnny Williams, Janet Nolen, Jessie Harlan, Jamie Benefield, Linda Sue Noles, our church, its members, and anyone else God wants you to pray for.
We invite you to visit with us at Verdon Chapel Baptist Church.
